This map shows the massive gas pipeline that Russia and China are building

Although Russia has reportedly invested $55 billion into its pipeline deal with China, natural gas imports through the pipeline have only totaled $3.81 billion since December 2019, according to China customs data as of June, accessed through Wind Information.

The pace of Chinese purchases picked up in the first half of this year — nearly tripling from a year ago to $1.66 billion, the data showed.

Thanks for acknowledging my truthful boldface comments to your hysterical and hypocritical lies in non-boldface.

I’m guessing you go to Ukraine to patronize it’s most well-known enterprise. You do seem to have such high regard for children.

[Monterrosa-24]

You are the one who supports boy-kisser Putin and his army of rapists. You support invaders and all-manner of evil. I on the other hand, support Christian ethics which in Ukraine means evil is fought. Death to the invaders. Glory to Ukraine and its Holy survival.

I think it is more:

China = Germany
Russia = Japan
Iran = Italy

I am not enamored with diversity...especially when mandated.

There, now you can label me as well.

“Russia will need this in the future, as Europe disconnects more and more”

How is that a good thing for Europe since the US also has reduced its output?

[Pilsner]

I wouldn’t trust any of the media outlets to tell me what side of the planet the sun rose on.

So how do you know that there is a war going on at all? Do you pick up Radio Moscow on your bridgework?

We need a Teddy Roosevelt today to take on the Big Tech monopoly mind-controllers—and destroy them.

Times are quite different than in TR's day but we had such a guy - Trump and most of the controllers of the world ganged up to rid themselves of him so their various bureaucracies and avenues of power and revenue would remain intact.

“The most free in history? Not now. Not with warrantless secret FISA courts where you don’t even know you are a defendant until the SWAT team shows up. Not with NSA spying on all U.S. citizens. Not with extrajudicial drone strikes on U.S. citizens ordered by Obama.”

There is no dispute that we are less free today than we were 30 years ago. The decline began in earnest 25 - 30 years ago, under the Clintons (politicizing the FBI and the Courts); it continued on steroids with Obama/Biden.

But, my point is, the United States was the most free country in history, where the people held the most power.

If we continue on our present path — as Biden and his handlers seem so determined to do — we’ll end up like Soviet Russia.

“You can dish it, but you can’t take it. You got exposed as a hypocrite.”

Show me the hypocrisy, Sparky. Come on; man up and show us all.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Show you the hypocrisy ? Read your own posts.

I am a supporter of President Trump, but what I liked about Teddy was he “talked softly and carried a big stick”.

Teddy got it done—against ferocious and powerful opposition.

BTW: What’s with this “fieldmarshal” crap? The United States does not have field marshalls. Britain did; Nazi Germany did. Whoa: are you a Nazi? Hell, Idi Amin Dada was a self-proclaimed field marshall. Are you a mini-Amin?

“Show you the hypocrisy ?”

Don’t dodge it: Show me. Come on, put on your big boy pants and show us! You can’t, can you? You are a fraud.

“China needs Russia (for now) and Russia needs China (for now) and so does Iran. Think WW II (Russia is Italy), (China is Germany) and (Iran is Romania) They have client states they can call upon for help but they are too weak to do much—Syria, Cuba, North Korea, Cambodia, etc... This is a new Axis and a big mean one who hates America and the west.”

That’s a fact.

[citizen]

I do not know the domestic specifics of TR's time but, while he surely had foes in the populace and among politicians domestic & foreign, I doubt he was confronted with the largely united forces massed against President Trump. To include traditional mass media and in the digital world that Roosevelt never had to deal with.

My words are in no way meant to detract from Roosevelt's steadfast zeal in dealing with the powerful forces of his day.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Pipe down, grandpa. Isn’t it time for your nap ?

The earlier post said:

“This is a new Axis and a big mean one who hates America and the west.”

What the Neocons can’t seem to face is why and why now.

The answer is that the Western oligarchs became arrogant jerks pushing sexual perversion and other Western “values” like stealing elections and calling it “democracy” and big tech censorship and calling it “freedom of speech” and demanding worldwide submission and compliance.

Every self-respecting nation in the world is giving the Western oligarchs the middle finger—and it is well deserved.

[fieldmarshaldj]

When are you leaving for Ukraine to fight for your snake-god Soros, grandpa ?

“Pipe down, grandpa. Isn’t it time for your nap ?”

Not a chance, Sparky.
